Overview

The Trade Advocacy Fund (TAF)TAF provides developing countries with access to high quality analysis and advice, training and development for trade negotiators and limited logistical support so that officials can participate in trade negotiations, disputes and key policy meetings.

Background information on the fund

The UK has established TAF in order to provide legal advice and support to the world’s most vulnerable countries to prepare for and engage in key trade talks. Lack of access to legal expertise or resources has meant that the poorest countries have been marginalised in negotiations around their own future, making it harder to reach global and regional trade deals.
